By The Numbers

They say the "proof is in the pudding!"

The proof is in the pudding'' is actually a shortened version of a very old proverb, "the proof of the pudding is in the eating.'' It means that the real worth or success or effectiveness of something can only be determined by putting it to the test, appearances and promises aside - just as the best test of a pudding is to eat it. --Editors of Merriam-Webster's Collegiate Dictionary, Tenth Edition

I joined with YTB with the idea of starting a home-based business and generating passive/residual income, PLUS I wanted to save on my own personal travel and taxes. YTB is a great company with a great opportunity and great leadership. Though YTB appears to offer a good compensation plan, there are flaws.

The three major problems with the marketing plan ...

#1 Cost! $500.00 + $149 and a 7 hour day for your CRTA training! Total $649.00
#2 6 up program, you need to give up your first 6 to get to your power team (the average person only sponsors 2-3 people)
#3 95% of the people never get to the residual income, because they never get to their power team.

I was introduced to TraVerus a couple of times but didn't look at it seriously until 1 month ago because of emotional ties to YTB. I put a lot into it and I had met a lot of great people in YTB, people that I had a lot of respect and admiration for. But once I looked at it hard, I had to make the switch over to TraVerus. I had to let go my emotions and make a business decision. After all, I am in business.

Just a couple of great examples when you compare the compensation plans and start-up costs:

YTB pays 60% travel commission... of the only 8% to 10% booked through the site! Outside the site pays more.
TraVerus pays 65% travel commission to RTC's and 75% travel comission to CTA's... of the only 8% to 10% booked through the site! Outside the site pays more.

YTB pays $50.00 on a $500 start up cost as an RTA plus an additional $149 to be a CRTA (You can’t become a CTA with YTB).
TraVerus pays $50.00-$100 on a $119.95 start up cost as an RTC or $399.95 start up cost as a CTA (Certified Travel Agent).

YTB pays a 50% matching bonus after you enroll three people.
TraVerus pays 150% matching coded bonus on your first two enrollment's then 100% from your third on.

YTB pays $2.00 per month residual income per person from your 7th person on that are coded to you in your power team.
TraVerus pays you $5.00 per month residual from your 3rd person and on all people coded to you from those enrollments. TraVerus also pays you 100% matching residual on every person you enroll.

YTB pays $2.00 per month residual in your dream team first generation then progressively less.
TraVerus pays in a forced matrix bonus, in addition to the $5.00 coded residual bonus, $6.00 per month 2nd generation, $10.00 a month 3rd generation, $5.00 month 4th generation, $4.00 a month 5th & 6th generation and more on the same people!

For instance: If you had 100 travel stores in your down line in YTB, your residual income would be $188 per month because you have to give up your first 6, then you get $2 per store for the other 94. If you had the same 100 travel stores in your down line in TraVerus, your residual income would be about $1,074 or more per month because you get $5 per store on the front end plus the residual created on the back end as described above (forced matrix). This will be paid to you month after month after month after month after month... and so on.

YTB is only open in 4 countries (US, Bahamas, Canada and Bermuda) ...
TraVerus is open in 98 countries including US, Australia, Canada, Mexico, China, Japan, Germany, Nigeria etc…

YTB has a 40% retention rate...
TraVerus has 85-90% retention rate…

YTB has about 137,000 paying reps in US...
TraVerus has 12,000 agents in 30 countries with 68 more in which to do business! Which means you can get in at an early stage and be a part of the huge growth! This is a true ground floor opportunity!

YTB has been in business and doing network marketing for 7 years.
TraVerus has been in the travel business 26 years total; just 1 year in network marketing.

And More...

Don’t let your emotions stand between you and SUCCESS. Take control of your business today. Stop padding the residual income of your up line and create your own. This is a simple business. Don't confuse that with easy. Simple means you can learn what you need to do quickly, pursue your dream, work hard to get it and you will get it!

My wish is that you will feel a compelling desire to succeed, as that’s where true success comes from. Desire creates passion. A burning desire can set the world on fire in a positive way. Desire is the burning drive inside oneself that turns the impossible to the possible.

Dream the impossible then slowly, steadily and faithfully, make it come true.
